Older People

When I was growing up I was always confused as to why "old" people got up so early. I mean, come one, kids are grown you can do what you want without having to check with people and you could sleep in. You could sleep in until noon if you wanted, yet they would talk about all the things they had done before 7 because they were up at 5. I mean, what's up with that? Well everyone, I am now an "old" person. I have noticed more and more that I go to bed later and wake up earlier. I'm not saying I get up because my inner voice is telling me to stay in bed fool. So I force myself to stay in bed until a whole 7:00 now. It's not five, but it is also not 9. I have also noticed other changes which are not fun or pretty. I won't go into them , but hey sisters, it is getting really ugly. Mom never talked to me/us about a lot of these changes. At least, at this point, I don't have to cut holes in the sides of my shoes yet.

As far as my week goes, I am behind in both my on-line class and the Book of Me. This week's topic in the Book of Me is about my significant other. Hope to post the layout in my next blog. Still trying to come up with what I want to write. I know which pictures I want to use.

This week, however, I will add a picture of my little significant other. He likes to swing, kick the ball, drink milk, and watch Dora.
